thirsty merc and life so far

Things have been HECTIC! I had spent Tuesday overnighting in the laboratory, listening to eighties music playing on our communal radio while shooting DNA into tobacco leaves using our gene gun. I then groggily headed home at 7 am the next day and had trouble claiming back my hours of lost sleep because my body simply wouldn't let me sleep past mid day.

After hours of tossing around on the bed, I finally hauled myself to see Thirsty Merc (I have been waiting for this day for the past few months)!! Unfortunately, by that time, I was having a massive headache from the lack of sleep.

I have no proper photos from my night with Thirsty Merc other than this one taken with my Blackberry (I was adamant in leaving my camera at home so I would be able to dance freely).

How true is gogoporen's sketch???

Sadly enough, I eventually regretted not bringing my camera that night as I ended up being right in front of the stage. I went green with envy when I saw the lady beside me snap an awesome photo of Rai (lead singer)! Argh!

Here is a short video taken with my Blackberry of the band playing a song off their latest album. I wasn't able to record the whole song because I could not fight my urge to dance! Sorry guys! 

It looks like a crowdful of girls, but I swear there was a guy on my right who knew EVERY SINGLE word to EVERY SINGLE song.

This video is my new addiction!:

Don't you just love the doo-wop dancing?

It has been tough week at the Whitney Lab. Nevertheless, a good friend from Malaysia has returned to Canberra for her graduation and I am looking forward to spending a good time with her over the next few weeks!

Averaging on four hours of sleep this week, xo

PS: There has been a goose around the area, squawking like it had been run over for an infinite number of times. Is this something about Spring I should be knowing about?

PPS: Thank you silvii-tron and MiniDiva for the follow! :)
